FedEx Flag guy
 

Someone on the Jetflyers Facebook page has started an appreciation fund for the guy from our pilots. Just a heads up for guys who might want to know.

I'm not on Facebook. How can I contribute?

Cracks me up.
 

I don't think we will see him rescuing any more flags in uniform. Glad he was able to do it once!

+1 on the donation link.

From Steve Miller
Some folks have said they'd like to contribute, but couldn't find this info buried as a response in a prior post so I'm making it a standalone post. At this time I've received about $2,500 through PayPal. It's too soon for checks to have arrived.

I have established the:
"Friends of the Flag Trust Fund for the Benefit of Matthew S Uhrin"

You can contribute by mailing a check, made out to "Stephen C. Miller IOLTA account" (an attorney trust fund account) to my office:

Stephen C. Miller, Esquire
113 N. Olive St.
Media, PA 19063

Or, if you'd like to pay via PayPal, go to this link:

https://paypal.me/friendsofmattu

If presented the option (phone app v. Computer versions of PayPal vary), select "friends or family" as a recipient so there is no merchant fee charged and quicker transfer of the funds.

All funds raised will be held in trust and donated to Matt either as cash, as a gift, or in a manner determined by the trustees. Should Matt be unwilling or unable to accept the proceeds of the trust, they will be donated at Matt's direction; or if Matt fails to provide such direction, to a charity of the trustees' choosing, consistent with the motivation of the creation of this trust: the support of citizens protecting the American flag.

No funds shall be used for administration, fees, or any purpose other than to the benefit of Matt.

The Trustees shall be a committee of three to five individuals, each with equal say in the administration of the trust. Trustees may be added or removed by petition of the potential/trustee and approval by any other then trustee.

The trustees are:
Stephen C. Miller MEM 767 F/O
Anthony H Miller LAX MD11 F/O
Howard Pilcher MEM MD11 C/A

He's not getting canned if that's what you're talking about. FedEx put out a statement yesterday, "no change in employment status".

Now go throw the guy a few bucks.
